On 19 June 2020 NCV Enterprises Pty Ltd at public auction purchased land at 3222 Kyogle Road, Mount Burrell, NSW, for $2 million.
This land formerly owned by Wollumbin Horizons Pty Ltd (in liquidation) had been intended as a commune, the Bhula Bhula Community.
On 14 January 2021 Tweed Shire Council received Development Application 21/0010 Integrated Development – lodged by NCV Enterprises Pty Ltd for multiple occupancy at 2924, 2956, 2984 & 3222 Kyogle Road. A collection of land parcels comprising 1,584.3ha of forested land stretching from Kunghur to Mount Bullah. With a section of the Tweed River within its boundaries.
Described for promotional purposes as Nightcap on Minjungbul at: https://www.youtube.com/c/NightcaponMinjungbul/videos.
Tweed Shire Council rejected the concept plan at its 1 July 2021 ordinary monthly meeting.
Noting that The Development Application was referred externally to: Natural Resources Access Regulator, Heritage, Community Engagement – Department of Premier and Cabinet, NSW Rural Fire Service, Department of Planning Industry & Environment – Biodiversity and Conservation Division. All of the agencies either required further information or did not support the proposal. The Biodiversity and Conservation Division advised that they estimate the proposed development would require extensive land clearing of approximately 106ha of native vegetation with a further 220ha of impact in native populations and areas described as “cleared/grassed paddocks with scattered trees, regrowth and weed thickets”. The cost of Biodiversity Offsets required to offset the loss of biodiversity values to enable the proposed development is estimated in excess of $27 million.
On 10 February 2021 Council passed the matter to the Northern Regional Planning Panel (NRPP) as designated consent authority, recommending refusal.
On 18 August 2021 the NRPP refused DA21/200 a multiple occupancy concept plan for this land. Applicants were listed as Kempcove Pty Ltd, NCV Enterprises Pty Ltd, Peter Van Lieshout, Dolph Cooke, Darko Kovac and Zimmer Land Pty Ltd.
Echo online reported on 2 February 2023:
The contentious Tweed Valley, Nightcap Village multiple occupancy (MO) $39M development application (DA) near Uki, promoted by Pete Evans, was refused by the Northern Regional Planning Panel (NRPP) in August 2021. They had one year to appeal the decision, and with one day to spare the MO solicitors lodged an appeal to the Land & Environment Court (L&EC) against the NRPP’s decision not to give approval for the project.
An ‘on site Mediation Conference’ was originally set for ‘9 and 10 February 2023’, however, this has now been moved to an online meeting starting 9 February…..
